Best celebration is Barry Sanders. Hand the ball to the ref and act like you have done it before.
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

Classiest is Charles Woodson's handshake with his teammates. Act like you've been there before but still congratulate each other on a job well done.
But I don't mind them celebrating if the show is for the fans rather than the opponent. So I didn't like when T.O. celebrated on Dallas' star while he was a Niner, didn't like when John Abraham mocked AR's belt in the playoffs, didn't like Finley's pose and stare... Things like that cross the line IMO. But doing the riverdance or putting the football with the pylon or doing CPR on the ball is just some amateur yet somewhat amusing entertainment for the fans. I have no problem with those celebrations at all.
Chuck Norris doesn't cut his grass, he just stares at it and dares it to grow
I thought Stefano died while I was still in college...If you have to take 3 drinks every time Jon lifts an eyebrow, you'll never make through the hour.
First, Stefano has died about a dozen times. Second, nobody said it would be easy.
I think the official correctly interpreted it as not intentionally having been directed at the opponent. It was just something Finley did toward no one in particular.
yup. I agree. Finley is a young hotspur, but he's keeping it mostly under control. I hope to see many more YOTTO's in the endzone for Green Bay this year and for years to come.
I don't know. In years past, Finley's made a big time catch then just stared at the defender who failed to stop him.
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
Are we really arguing this much about Finley crossing his arms and legs? Watch any other game and you will see celebrations that are much, much worse. The whole league revolves around the skill position players taking a look-at-me attitude. Personally, I'm not a big fan of Driver's celebration. Was Finley's celebration really that much worse than Driver's shoulder shake and signal first down? This is getting way overblown.
If anything, Finley should have gotten flagged because his celebration was lame. You have to come with something better than that JF!!

Yes, because his staredown and facial expression was an intended part of his "celebration". That wasn't even a celebratory act in the first place as far as I'm concerned. His YOTTO or whatever the fuck that is after scoring a TD is a celebratory act. His pose and stare is a taunt. Surely you can understand the difference.

Not to pile on here, but all celebration is a big Fuck You to your opponent whether you look directly at them or not. If you don't like Finely thats cool, but just own up to it.
